"The Pentagon has begun releasing new files on UFOs, saying members of the public can draw their own conclusions on "unidentified anomalous phenomena." Besides the Pentagon, the effort is led by the White House, the director of national intelligence, the Energy Department, NASA and the FBI. The Pentagon said Friday in a post on X that while past administrations sought to discredit or dissuade the American people, President Donald Trump "is focused on providing maximum transparency to the public, who can ultimately make up their own minds about the information contained in these files.""
"The Pentagon says additional documents will be released on a rolling basis.

The Pentagon has started releasing new declassified files related to unidentified anomalous phenomena, allowing the public to draw its own conclusions. The effort is coordinated with the White House, the director of national intelligence, the Energy Department, NASA, and the FBI. The Pentagon says additional documents will be released continuously.

A 2024 debut report listed hundreds of UAP incidents but found no evidence that the U.S. government confirmed alien technology. Some members of Congress have demanded specific UAP videos, and further releases are expected over time.
